What better way to warm up this fall than with a stylish chic blazer? Mood Fabrics’ Zea Blazer pattern got a cozy maker-over, perfect for mixing and matching with all your staples pieces. Wear this over-sized comfy blazer with jeans, and chunky sweaters to complete your cold-weather looks! For the version I modeled, we updated this already great pattern with welt pockets.
